I 42 this volunteer work, making 43 with the four volunteers in the kitchen. One was a very nice elderly housewife, one a movie actor, another a young teacher, and the other a college student, 44 me.
I talked to a lot of the homeless people at the shelter. Their life stories 45 me with sympathy (同情). Some of them had 46 with alcohol(酒精) or drugs while others only had bad 47 .

(答案→)D
解析：本文介绍了大学生做志愿者帮助他人并从中学会了很多的故事。
【小题1】D take only two classes只上两节课。
【小题2】B上文提到I wasn’t working that summer and taking only two classes in summer school，据此判断free time“空闲时间”切题。
【小题3】A根据下文所述，应选A项，意为“帮忙（做饭）”。D项“洗刷”不确切。
【小题4】C cook hot meals for 45 people意为“为45口人做热腾腾的饭”。ordered和bought虽用法上正确，但与上文提到的help in the kitchen不相符。
【小题5】A with“具有，配有”，with短语作meal的定语。
【小题6】B作者对这些“无家可归者”持同情态度，应选B项，即“需要食用这样丰盛的饭菜”，否则前后不吻合。
【小题7】D从very nice, talked to a lot of… 等来看，作者应该是“喜欢自己的义务工作”。
【小题8】C根据下文nice elderly housewife以及like me等判断，作者与另外四位志愿者关系融洽，故选择C项。require此处意为“需要”。
【小题9】B从上文taking only two classes in summer school判断，作者身份为大学生，故选择B项。
【小题10】B fill me with sympathy使我充满了同情之心。provide sb. with sth.“供应某人某物”，含义不妥。
【小题11】D从下文others only had bad… 来分析，此处为“有些人存有嗜酒、吸毒问题”。habit通常与of搭配。
【小题12】A从下面所举事例可知答案。
【小题13】C so和thus表因果关系，again表动作重复发生，均不合题意。then在此表示前后动作先后发生，正合题意。
【小题14】D前句提到lost her job，故选D项。
【小题15】A从One woman worked for almost 30 years可知答案。
【小题16】C so that表目的，could为重要标志。for fear“以免”，文意不通。
【小题17】Ago on job hunting意为“继续找工作”，切合题意。
【小题18】Bstill“仍然，依然”，句意通顺。
【小题19】Dflat意为“公寓”，另外三项不符合这位妇女当时所处的情况。
【小题20】Aafraid与alone, homeless相匹配。
